Therefore, a legal fram

Samröresbrottet - en rättfärdigad kriminalisering eller ett resultat av irrationell brottskontroll?

De senaste decennierna har sett omfattande kriminalisering av terroristbrottslighet. De flesta av de terroristbrott som har införts i svensk rätt är ett resultat av internationella och EU-rättsliga förpliktelser. Oftast har dessa kriminaliseringsåtaganden inneburit att gärningar på väldigt tidigt förberedande stadium har kriminaliserats. Det senaste i raden av dessa brott, samröresbrottet, kriminaThe last couple of decades has seen extensive criminalization of terrorist crimes. Most of the terrorist crimes that have been implemented into Swedish law are a result of international obligations and obligations derived from membership of the European Union. Mostly, these obligations have meant criminalizing conduct that is very remote from the harm it seeks to prevent. Thus, these crimes have a

The Deadly Impact of Socio-Economic Inequality: How socio-economic inequality affects conflict intensity in Sub-Saharan Africa and Central- and South America

Civil wars continue to prevail, and the number of causalities increase in the last decade, while socioeconomic disparities within countries steadily widen in many parts of the world.

Evaluation of float-truncation based compression techniques for the ATLAS jet trigger

Vid ATLAS-experimentet på forskningsanläggningen Large Hadron Collider vid CERN i Schweiz kan det som mest ske runt en miljard partikelkollisioner per sekund. Den data som produceras utifrån dessa tillåter fysiker att studera de mest grundläggande egenskaperna och beståndsdelarna hos och i naturen. Den modell som idag beskriver dessa är den så kallade standardmodellen. Även om denna har verifieratData compression methods allow more data to be stored within a certain storage framework while still keeping the characteristics of the data in question. At the Large Hadron Collider on the grounds of CERN in Switzerland, limited data storage capability is and has always been an urgent problem. At the ATLAS experiment, one technique which allows researchers to save more data within the same storag

När hemmet blir din arbetsplats - En kvalitativ studie om distansarbetets påverkan på kvinnors återhämtningsmöjligheter

Distansarbetet har inneburit en förändring av arbetslivet. Då distansarbetet till stor del sker hemifrån resulterar det i att arbetssfären (första skiftet) och icke-arbetssfären i form av hushållsarbete (andra skiftet) integreras allt mer. Tidigare forskning påvisar att kvinnor upplever ett ansvar över både hushållsarbetet samt planerandet av detta (tredje skiftet), vilket i sin tur påverkar deras

Rehabiliteringskedjan i sjukförsäkringen - En analys av begreppet ”Normalt förekommande arbete på arbetsmarknaden”

2008 ändrades den svenska sjukförsäkringsprocessen till ett nytt system, rehabiliteringskedjan. Rehabiliteringskedjan är i lag fastslagna tidpunkter i sjukskrivningsprocessen, där den sjukskrivnes arbetsförmåga ska prövas mot olika bedömningsgrunder. Den första är mot sina ordinarie arbetsuppgifter, den andra mot vad ens arbetsgivare kan erbjuda och den tredje är mot ett arbete som anses vara normIn 2008 the system for the assessment process within the Swedish sickness benefit was changed, into the rehabilitation chain. Within the rehabilitation chain, there are different stages of assessing the individual’s capacity for work. The different stages of assessments are enforced by law. The first assessment examines if the individual has the work ability to work with his or her regular task as

Preskription eller ett preskriptionsundantag? - En utredning om 10 kap. 8 § miljöbalken och dess tillämpning på det solidariska ansvaret för föroreningsskador

Föroreningar av mark- och vattenområden, så kallade föroreningsskador, medför i regel höga kostnader att avhjälpa. För att undvika att kostnaden belastar statsbudgeten har ett avhjälpandeansvar införts i 10 kap. miljöbalken, enligt vilket i första hand verksamhetsutövare har ett ansvar för utredning, efterbehandling och andra åtgärder som krävs för att avhjälpa en föroreningsskada. VerksamhetsutövAfter-treatment of polluted land or water areas usually entails high costs. To avoid that the cost burdens the state budget, an after-treatment liability was introduced in chapter 10 of the Environmental Code, according to which operators primarily shall be liable for the cost of investigation, after-treatment and other measures required to remedy the pollution damage. As a general rule, the conce

Konsumentköplagens anpassning för hästköp – Vägen mot en ny lagstiftning

När en konsument köper en häst för flera hundra tusen kronor omfattas köpet av samma lag som när konsumenten köper en brödrost för några hundra kronor.
